Every day with Windows is like this. It’s a fucking nightmare. I don’t know what else to do.

Truly Truly, I say unto you, install Linux; it's what you really must do.

I have a few games that don’t run on Steam. How big of a pain is it to get them running?

This is like 50-70% of my PC usage.

You can search on e.g. Lutris if the game is supported. It's usually just a one button install

Thanks. Looks like it’s all Wine wrappers. 🫤

It is not uncommon to find "Wine wrappers" to actually work better than on Windows itself.
